RapidVisa B1/B2 Service
A. RapidVisa B1/B2 Service
Last Updated: April 12, 2023
- Description of Service. The B1/B2 Service is for non-U.S. citizens looking to travel to the U.S. RapidVisa will gather important initial information and provide you instructions on which supporting documents to upload and in what format. Then, RapidVisa will help you complete and submit your required Form DS-160 (Online Nonimmigrant Visa Application). After your application materials are submitted, we will help you schedule and prepare for any required embassy interview. In some instances, you may be required to submit additional materials or undergo a medical examination, and RapidVisa will notify you if you are required to do so.
- No Attorney Review. THE B1/B2 SERVICE DOES NOT INCLUDE A REVIEW OF YOUR APPLICATION MATERIALS BY, OR ASSISTANCE FROM, AN INDEPENDENT ATTORNEY. RAPIDVISA PERSONNEL THAT ASSIST YOU WITH COMPLETING YOUR APPLICATION ARE NOT ATTORNEYS AND DO NOT PROVIDE LEGAL ADVICE.
- Government Fee. If you reside in a country for which RapidVisa can complete payment to the U.S. Government on your behalf, you will be required to pay the required Government Fee to RapidVisa at the time you purchase the service and RapidVisa will facilitate payment of the Government Fee on your behalf. However, if RapidVisa is unable to facilitate payment of the Government Fee on your behalf for any reason, RapidVisa will refund you the Government Fee and you will be required to remit the Government Fee yourself. If you reside in a country where the Government Fee must be paid locally, you will be required to remit the applicable Government Fee directly to the U.S. Department of state or its contracted partner entities.
- Reapplication. If your visa application is denied for any reason, RapidVisa will assist you in reapplying one (1) time with no additional Service Fee. You will remain responsible for any Government Fee required to be paid in connection with your second application.
- Refunds. The B1/B2 Service is not eligible for the RapidVisa 14-Day 100% Satisfaction Guarantee. However, if your Form DS-160 application has not been filed within 24 hours following your purchase of the B1/B2 Service and you are unsatisfied with your purchase, you may request a refund of the Service Fee and Government Fee (if applicable) you paid to RapidVisa. The determination of whether to issue a refund more than 24 hours after your purchase of the B1/B2 Service, other than a refund due to a billing error by RapidVisa, shall be made in RapidVisa’s sole discretion, in good faith, and we reserve the right to deny a request for a refund in those circumstances.
- Certifications By You. You will be required to review your application and approve it prior to filing. You acknowledge that you are solely responsible for the content of your application. By approving your application for submission, you certify and acknowledge as follows:

Furthermore at the time of your interview, you will be required to certify under penalty of perjury that all statements in your application and those made during your interview are true and compete to the best of your knowledge and belief. The submission of an application containing any false or misleading statements may result in the permanent refusal of a visa or the denial of entry into the United States. All declarations made in the application are unsworn declarations made under penalty of perjury.
- You understand that you are required to submit your visa to the United States Immigration Officer at the port where you apply to enter the United States, and that possession of the visa does not entitle you to enter the United States if, upon your arrival, you are found to be inadmissible under U.S. immigration laws. You certify that you understand that any willfully false or misleading statement or willful concealment of a material fact made by you within the application may subject you to permanent exclusion from the United States and, if you are admitted to the United States, may subject you to criminal prosecution and/or deportation.
- Some visa applicants are required to undergo a medical examination with an authorized physician to assess visa eligibility consistent with INA Sections 212(a) and 221(d), and will be notified of the requirement. If you are notified and required to undergo a medical examination, failure to provide required information may cause delay or denial of your visa application. If required to undergo a medical examination, your medical examination information may be collected and temporarily stored in the eMedical system hosted, operated, and maintained by the Australian Department of Home Affairs. If your medical examination is collected in eMedical, you will be requested to provide consent to its collection and temporary storage in such system, and being transferred to the U.S. Government for the purposes of enabling the U.S. Department of State to determine your medical eligibility and for the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to undertake public health functions under the Public Health Service Act Section 325 and INA Section 212(a).
